Yep, same engine, but I hear the head is a bit different. Keep in mind that the Supra engines are different for the Turbo and N/A, the turbo engines are built for boost. It appears that a 2JZ-GTE would bolt right in, but mounting the intercooler, and running the piping, let alone the ECU, would be a bit hard (but well worth it). Putting turbos on the stock engine in that car I wouldn't push more than 5lbs of boost because of the compression...

The motor for the sc300 is built almost hte same way as a supra n/a..the only difference is the head...i think the valvetrain is different or somtin like that...its no big difference, you can still slap on a turbo ive seen it done and let me tell you this becomes a fassst car indeed
